    You could bypass the thermostat and put a digital controller in. There is one for like 12 bucks on amazon. With a few other cheap parts you could use that instead.

    I have as well. I added the Notty last night / this morning at 12am. Went down at 8am this morning and it was definitely working. I just hope I don't get an air lock blow out with all that yeast. But better that than dump a batch.

    What would you suggest I re-pitch with? I have some sarfale us-05 sitting around or would a nottingham yeast be better? I've never re-pitched before so I'm not sure. Keg #1 - Brewers Best American Ale Keg #2 - Brewers Best Kolsch Keg #3 - Harpoon IPA Keg #4 - DK Honey Ale (Midwest Honey Ale)...

I am raising the temp a little to see if it helps as well as I tried to stir up the yeast. I have to check...
